BARRIOS CORONEL, Iván et al. Self-regulation of learning and academic performance in medical students: The case of three Universities of Paraguay. An. Fac. Cienc. Méd. (Asunción) [online]. 2023, vol.56, n.1, pp.32-40. ISSN 1816-8949.  https://doi.org/10.18004/anales/2023.056.01.32.

Introduction:

Self-regulation of learning refers to the modulation of affective, cognitive and behavioral processes throughout a learning experience to reach a desired level of achievement. Students who have a better management of their cognitive and metacognitive skills learn in a better way than those who do not, therefore, it is essential to study at what level university students are capable of learning to learn and to be managers of their learning.

Objectives:

To analyze the relationship between self-regulation of learning and academic performance in medical students from three universities in the year 2022.

Materials and methods:

This research followed a quantitative approach; the type of research was observational and descriptive. A previously validated instrument was used to identify types of self-regulation, the Self-Regulation of Learning from Texts (ARATEX-R).

Results:

No significant relationship was found between the academic profile of medical students and the total ARATEX-R score. When studying the relationship between the dimensions of self-regulation, a relationship was found between academic performance and motivation planning and management, which implies that those who have better planning skills and who are able to manage their motivation have better academic performance.

Conclusion:

The main dimensions that characterize the self-regulation of learning in medical students were: context management, cognition management and comprehension evaluation.
